The fuck was the point of this room?Other than to get my dick hard?
>>339752648
>That one fucking student witch
Must be the nerd girl the others let hang out with them.
Dick hardening AND easy soul farming location.
>>339754565
It was so hard to find a spot in the room without getting ganggraped or having to spam magic to get that bitch off the bed.
I think you were supposed to use the Persephone Soul in that room.
>>339755626
It only stunlocks the Student Witch and Persephone though
It also eats the Witch's projectiles I guess
>>339752648

I'm probably an idiot for even asking, but what was the point of sitting in the confessional in SotN?
>>339756339
For Alucard to confess and get some stuff off his chest.
>>339756475
Well in that one he's acting role of the priest, so I'm not sure what to make of that.
>>339756539
Oh shit, what was that?
>>339756339
Sont was filled with tons of useless things like that >>339756539 it was part of the design.
>>339756339
World building.
Also you can get items.
>>339756702
>Also you can get items.
You can? Never noticed that. What do you get?
To experience a fantasy come to life.
>>339756770
>You can? Never noticed that. What do you get?
I can't remember, haven't played that game in like 10 years. Nothing major though from what I can recall.
>>339756621
The game has a very tiny chance of turning Alucard into that when he gets petrified.
>>339756842
Grape juice, according to EGM2.
Doesn't heal you very much.
>>339752648
Same reason as the bath in the arena/Colosseum area in AoS
>>339756770
You have to use the secret shoes to increase your height, otherwise you just get penetrated by spikes.
Real question, did Julius shit his pants? What's that brown shit? Why is he such a shitty belmont?

I think this happened to me once with the Iron Golem or Final Guard.
I think that's the cloest I've come to wanting to break my DS. Fucking hell.
>>339752648
>you will never go to a qt magic slumber party
I'M ON IT
>>339758171
The iron golem is one-shotted by the Killer Mantle soul from the Arena.
But yeah, the Final Guard is always a pain.Except PoR, where Thousand Blades makes short work of them.
>>339757584
I played both sorrow games but I don't understand. Do souls damage you?
>>339759213
He's farming for the armor's soul. He kills it, no soul, he leaves and comes back to try again.
Sometimes you get in a pattern of doing it so fast that when the soul DOES show up, you're already gone.
>>339757584
This got me.
Also when the hell is the next 2D Castlevania coming out. It's been a while since Ecclesia, any day now right?
>>339759072
>The iron golem is one-shotted by the Killer Mantle soul from the Arena.
I'm talking about DoS. AoS soul farming was fine. DoS soul farming was an absolute nightmare, the Iron Golem had something like a sub-percent chance of dropping. It was awful.
>>339759213
No. He was grinding for that knight's souls and just went he finally got him to drop it, he compulsively dashed out of the room before he got it.
>>339759389
I'm sorry Anon, but...
>>339759389
>Also when the hell is the next 2D Castlevania coming out. It's been a while since Ecclesia, any day now right?
Anon...
>>339759213
He had zoned out trying to farm a rare soul by killing the monster, leaving the room, then going back to kill it again so when the soul actually dropped he left to reset the room by reflex, making the previous effort moot.
>>339758864
>tfw I will never play with a full group on this game because I got it too late
From what I understand, the meta was a fucking mess and everyone that wasn't Soma was useless.
But fuck me I wanted to see almost a dozen people fight Dracula at the same time.
>>339759213
I'm guessing you never went for 100% souls on DoS. You're a far sensibler person than I.
>>339759389
Anon, it's time to let go.
Hope for the best for Bloodstained and La Mulana 2. That's the best we're getting.
>>339759397
The Souleater Ring is pretty much required in DoS.
>>339759563
At least you'll always havedat OST
>>339759389
We got castlevania 2.5D and it was garbage. Konami is shit and will never make anything besides pachinko machines again

>Get left behind by the rest of the group because no kick shortcuts.
>>339759720
Yeah, but even with it, it knocks the grind time from about six hours to maybe 3, or something equally absurd.

>inb4 Classicvanias are old and busted, maaaan
>>339759819
I know how you feel fellow Charlottefag. I was there when the game first got released and the worst thing about it was that they never bothered buffing her but had no problems making Soma more and more broken. There was no way they didn't notice the balance issues they just didn't care.

What did they mean by this?
Was Soma Cruz stronger than the Belmonts?
>>339759997
>>339760131
>Implying I didn't
I also used the imp soul and teddy bear for maximum effect. It's still shit for that kind of drop rate.
>>339759819
Who is this sad girl?
>>339760141
OOE albus mode was some of the most fun I've had with a castlevania game
>tfw RNG was nice enough to give you Peeping Eye while you were on your way to another monster
If only there was a soul stronger than Mandragora to abuse the Chaos Ring, aside from Iron Golem Cheese against Menace.
>>339760141
Shanoa is the cutest Castlevania girl, long black hair is the best, but I'd rank OOE as a game lower down. I've probably spent the most time with SoTN
>>339760601
Consideringhe was literally draculathat's a hard one to call.
>>339755840
I think he meant to clean something...
>>339760709
I think Shanoa is very handsome and not cute.
I would make a home with Shanoa and it would be a seinen anime.
>When Soma gets his wild Dracula hair

Dryad in Aria. Flame demon in Sorrow
>Flame demon making soul farming easy as shit in DoS and fucking the final bosses shit up
>>339761062
I always wondered, but what's up with his coat? Is it real fur?
Maybe I'm a little stupid, but I always get lost at some point during a castlevania game. So I just end up re-tracing damn near the entire castle, killing enemies or dodging them as I go. And I love it. It's not wasted time, because I'm getting levels/souls. And it doesn't feel like grinding, because I'm making fast progress through the rooms, even if it's a circular path.
In other games, the "battles" take too long and slows everything down, or the layout isn't complex enough to "get lost" in. But castlevania hits that sweet spot and I love it a lot.
Are there any other games that will give me this feeling?
>>339760708
If you're playing Aria of Sorrow, the red minotaur's axe soul is bar none the best DPS in the game when used with the Chaos Ring.
Backstep to cancel animation while using it and just drop huge axes everywhere.
>>339761470
Yeah. Soma's games take place in futureish/modern times. He has a legit fur coat.
>>339760910
>I think Shanoa is very handsome and not cute.
Anon, girls don't like it when you say they look handsome. why would you want to upset her by calling her such a mean thing?
>>339761470
When you have to be both warm and fashionable.
>>339760910
>>339761620
I think the word he's looking for is beautiful, or pretty. Or striking.
>>339761594
>>339761643
>>339761470
Fitting for Dracula incarnate.
>>339761643

Honestly, the javelin you got in the beginning of the game. Cheap MP cost, good range, damage that scaled well, could stun lock and hit groups of enemies, and stuck into the ground, so it could do a decent amount of damage to bosses/large enemies.

when I played the first DMC, it reminded me heavily of castlevania. Just make the castle more open, and cut back on the "unique key for a unique door" symptoms.
Imagine getting Neptune's Scepter or whatever the fuck macguffin, but then having NO CLUE where to put it, instead of "well obviously it goes in the Neptune Statue". So you have to explore, and remember the locations of some other likely door-type areas for when you get new Key items.

Well /v/, what soul was your never ever/nightmare to get in this game?
For some reason the Demon lord soul never drop for me.
>>339763818
Lots of room with shit you can't access until you backtrack with new tools. Make it seemless; try to minimize apparent loading, but don't go full American Wasteland with it with hallways unless it's for different zones. Make it all one world. No level select besides the teleporting rooms, since there aren't any levels except for one fuck huge castle.
Different weapons with plenty of gimmicks. Also some way to turn in monster pieces for drops; for some reason I feel as if the soul/weapon grind goes from ridiculous to unforgivable if the game will be 3D.Put the true ending behind some ridiculous requirements and have it require the player to go through a fucked up version of the world map.I'm a huge SotN/Sorrow fag. Sorry Classicvania anons.
>>339763818

You're spot on about Demon's Souls though

>>339766347
>What is a figure of speech
>>339766253
Art= good.
Story= It's terrible, shits on the old lore, it's full of plot holes and nonsense and Dracula sounds like a massive fag despite of DC being a Good voice actor.
Music= first one is shit, other two games are meh tier and not castlevania enough.
Gameplay=bland and too flashy even for castlevania standards.
World= acceptable.
Characters= Warhammer shit. with massive pauldrons and wow-tier swords. Some designs are really good though.
>>339766782
>No futa
I don't understand, who has the dick then?
>>339766531
Not really, Dark Souls may have pretty good intertwining level design, but it doesn't have anything remotely similar to the mechanical progression of metroidvania's where by the end your moveset and movement abilities are hugely expanded over what you had access to at the beginning. All character progression is based on simple stats in Dark Souls rather than actually interesting new abilities.
>>339766710
Look on the bright side: no kickstarter, no "please fund this", just a very successful campaign to get greenlit on Steam.
So while /v/ isn't hyped, they're at least not shitposting it either.

Meeeeeeh...
>>339757584
>>339766782
Senran Kagura was just released on PC, anon. Its got anime tiddies of all sizes and several yuri characters
No sex tho, but the official artwork is good enough
>Pic related
>>339770129
That was actually much better than I thought it was going to be. Great job anon.
>>339770147
>tfw it's not nes with orchestral music
feels bad
>>339770530
I actually wish more games were like this - old-school graphics but with more modern sound effects and music. Like Hotline Miami or something.

>>339770935
I'm not saying it can't be good, but the whole throwback 8-bit indie platformer shtick is so blase at this point that it's hard for me to be excited for upcoming games with that kind of presentation. But who knows, I might end up checking it out anyway.
>>339768514
>>339769435
>tfw nobody ever remembers Adventure Rebirth
WiiWare was a mistake.
>>339771457
That's cause that game was just sort of... there. It didn't really do anything particularly special with the Classicvania format.
>>339765969
I'm tired of the whole "retro" game style but this actually looks really pretty. I will keep an eye on it for sure.
Between this and Bloodstained there is hope, at least.
>>339770493
>>339770891
Thanks. I shilled for a good while on agdg but no luck so far. I hope some bloodstained-ish game rocks hard and people start making those type of games again.
>>339752648
I'm replaying this game for the first time in almost 8 years. Is this actually in the game?
>>339772276
In the top left of the map, I think.
>>339772454
>>339772276
I just played this game. It is there, yes.
>>339770740
Soul Farming and Boss Rush, that's literally it.
>>339772989
wish there was a cheat to keep it, the normal run speed is way too fucking slow.
>>339760081
While Konami has indeed murdered any hope for their franchises, a pachinko game being made for a series doesn't mean it's dead. Even Persona has pachinko machines and that series is still very much alive.
>>339752648
This thread had zero replies on page nine earlier today when I ignored it
Why is it
alive?
>>339773619
Because you touch yourself at night
>>339766202
Ecclesia's areas were terrible, they were all bite-sized, linear ass areas. It's the Prime 3 of Castlevania. Even Dracula's castle, the biggest area in the game, was just basically a fucking square.
2 best girls
>>339760141
I didn't like the glyph system and the level design is by far the blandest and most linear in all the metroidvania entries of the series.
at least it had some actual difficulty, unlike every other Castlevania since SoTN.
Post favorite boss.
Starting with some fresh OC
>>339761476
>but I always get lost at some point during a castlevania game
Wow you're stupid.
>>339771457
>>339771576
Did either of you even play it? it was a great game! But I'll admit that maybe 10 people including myself bought it.
>>339762757
I can't seem to think of a single thing that Rondo doesn't completely curbstomp IV in, especially the gameplay with all the new moves and much more varied enemies and boss battles. Besides nostalgia I guess.
>>339761173

>>339774601
>how do I play Rondo
There's a PC version.
>>339774601
use pcengine mu or plasy it on psp
>>339774336
It's a remake of a gameboy game.
>>339774601

>>339775094
What's the issue?
>>339766782
I mean, there's that one yuri dungeon crawler, but I don't know about platformer. I've seen one or two, but it's not female exclusive.

>>339775060
It is and isn't. it has nothing to do with the gameboy game aside from, name, main character and a few enemy types. it was basically an all new classicvania, which was kind of a shock.
>>339775251
>can't skip the intro

>>339775345
New update added Grant, but I haven't tested him
>>339775604
He's really almost everything I'd expect from Grant. Can climb, can dodge like a pro and is fun to play with.
Needs more knife-based skills tho.
>>339765713
I came here to post this
>>339757584
I must be the only one of you fags who will cheatmode my luck to max so I dont ahve to put up with this shit. grinding is not only a pointless fucking task, it also makes the game easier, and fuck that int the face.
>>339776319
In SoTN it was somewhat fun to grind for all possible items
I always wanted to get the collection of all Shields and Swords
Autism probably but it was satisfying
>>339769435
>actually spent time and played this shit to find it meh
Death the best.

Reminds me, shame Nintendo hasn't pulled a 3DS and just allow you to get them via the Wii U eShop instead of dealing with the Wii Shop channel in Wii mode.
>>339756875
You needed to be caught mid double jump.
>>339774231
I always preferred classy Drac to monster Drac. This weird hybrid form was a good compromise. Though I remember the fight itself being kinda shit.
Just dodging that sprite flying at you at Mach 10 for the entire fight because it did a gorillion damage.
Best boss fight is versus Julius in Aria of Sorrow.

Blew my mind back then.
Though Dracula's fight from serio's Castlevania is just 10/10 to me.

>tfw he was just fucking around and it was a fight you simply couldn't win.

I loved OoE because even though Shanoa was a badass she was not über strong. Also all the Van Helsing and classical horror references coming back. It was a step on the right direction.
Then we got LoS.

Wait, I thought Castlevania was officially genocided along with other Konami IPs.
Taking some drawing requests if anyone is interested. No more than 2 characters if possible.
>>339782273
That game is not from KOnami.
It is scamstarter porject which already has red flasg all over

I'm working on a "not" Castlevania.
It will be done a-any day nowat least one year more of work left.

Nobody's gonan give shit unless you fix animation.
Part of the appeal of Castlevanias are fluid, easy to read and non-boring precise, super-polished animations.

>>339782929
Valdis Story was made by one guy too (except background art).

We do need a composer, but it's really hard to find someone who is capable of making Castlevania music.
Do you think you can do it?

Now I know I've been baited.
HoD has decent music for some zones but god awful music for others, and those bad songs lower the game's average, making HoD stand out as having the worst soundtrack in the franchise.
>>339784159
Valmanway is Alucards

Claimh Solais ends up dealing more damage than Death's Scythe because of resistances.

Kinda slow but its DMG output makes it monster. With some proper gear there are only a few monsters that can survive single or two hits
>>339784343
I found that the Scythe's special attack in DoS did more damage, but maybe it was because of specific resistances.

no thanks
I'd rather use Alucart mdoe + luck pills to farm items than that
Working on a little something as well. Super early days. Barely managed to get movement+basic attack working.
I'm of the opinion that DoS and AoS are two of the best games ever. PoR and OoE both sucked.
>>339784942
It's a little clunky but you haven't committed the sin of rotating pixels instead of actually sticking to your resolution, so you're cool in my books.

>>339786889
no prob, my man. don't lose that fire in your heart, we're counting on your cool game.
i think they could be improved further by having the slash animation look as though it's moving very quickly, like going from the beginning to the end of the swipe to show a vicious motion. like zero's saber or something.

Kek. Noted.

I see what you did there. Nice effect.
Basically makes it look like an after image.
So I've been playing Ecclesia for the first time recently. Turns out Shanoa can gain the ability to transform into a succubus. Which begs they question. WHY ISN'T THERE SUCCUBUS SHANOA ART?!
So do you guys have any recommendations for metroidvania titles? I've played 3 lately, Mystik Belle, Environmental Station Alpha, and Pharaoh Rebirth. ESA and PR were fucking fantastic, and MB was alright too though I had some gripes with it. My hunger for metroidvania titles hasn't been sated.

THAT DUST LOOKS AWFUL SUSPICIOUS
DID YOU ROTATE THE PIXELS AND BREAK RESOLUTION YOU MOTHERFUCKERIn all seriousness that's pretty good. Consider having a very quick startup animation for movement, it always looks stiff when they go straight into the run.
>>339782593
>>339787074
I can really appreciate the effort you're putting into this project. But just to give my two cents, the design and animation of this dude looks cartoony. Which, isn't bad if that's what you're going for. But if that's not what you were going for, then perhaps it's something you want to address? His posture, and gait is very goofy looking. It's like the ironic spoof take on Castlevania.
>>339787312
Some anon told me that you can still back it, but I haven't checked.
>>339787463
Oh shit dog, I'll do it if I still can

There's no danger of my fire dying out any time soon, though. I've already wasted enough years on this dream to give up at this point.
Here's how the game first looked. All these assets have long since been scrapped, but the concept of the game remains. And now it's finally moving forwards, so I'm going to be working full-time on it for at least 5-6 months.
>i think they could be improved further by having the slash animation look as though it's moving very quickly, like going from the beginning to the end of the swipe to show a vicious motion.
Not entirely sure what you mean here. Got a visual example?
>>339780464
I SEE YOU!
Also, was I the only one who thinks the final boss for PoR was one of the best in the series. Where Charlotte and Johnathan had to fightA tag team of Dracula and Death. And after they won, Charlotte complements Dracula and death for their impromptu teamwork. It's probably the most affable anyone has been with Dracula.
>>339787283
Weird I don't remember the Succubi being able to disguise themselves.
Maybe that was just in Aria.

Yeah, that's the plan. Still lacking a lot of animations and transitions here.
>>339787419
Yeah, especially the jump is silly-looking.
Will change the jump, at least, but I'm not sure how much better I can get the rest. Will try, though.
Here's another earlier version of how the stuff used to look. The red girl was the protagonist at one point.
How do Castlevania fans feel about their series being compared to the Souls series?
>>339787157
Clean aka "true metoidvanias" or soemthing like Shovel knight will do?
>>339787785
It's whatever. It's like being a Megaman fan and someone says shit about stealing powers.
That part of me has been dead for so long it feels nothing.

Nice harpy tiddies.
>>339757584
Fucking christ
>>339787785
lol....
I guess if you strip the difficulty away and make it 2d. you basically move from check point to checkpoint(save rooms) and defeat bosses to progress.
But yeah... the combat system is completely different. And i think that is the most important aspect of the games.
>>339787785
I don't see the point of getting mad at kids.
>>339787518
>>339787605
Okay like here kinda, in the third row, see how as Zero is slashing, you see his sword at his side briefly, then it moves, making the big slash effect, but as the animation continues, it shows the bright spot moving along the path and fading, indicating motion along the slash's path. I think it's important to show motion when illustrating quick slashes like your cool red ones. Uh I still don't know if that makes sense.
Also! I recognize your in-progress shot, I remember being excited about the potential game that would come from it. Keep it up dude.
>>339787848
Dude anything works. I've played Shovel Knight too. Even if it's only okay, let me know. I can enjoy most stuff. I'm not too picky.
>>339787157
All I know is old ones like Lyle in Cube Sector, Hero Core, or An Untitled Story
Soldexus plays remarkably well if you can stand the 13 year old's DA presentation

Look up and try "Castle in the Darkness." It's a retro-styled one, but it's pretty good.
>>339788309
Oh shit I actually forgot I own that one. I'll give that a shot.
>>339788035
Thanks.
Yeah, it kind of makes sense. I'll keep it in mind and see what I can do!
>Also! I recognize your in-progress shot, I remember being excited about the potential game that would come from it. Keep it up dude.
Damn! Someone actually remembers! Thanks - I will!

>>339787782
>Will change the jump, at least, but I'm not sure how much better I can get the rest. Will try, though
The running animation is more noticeable than the jump. I think the key problem is that he has bad posture. he has the forward lurching neck posture of someone who sits at a computer too long. And his arms just kind of hang there when he's standing, like "I really wish I wasn't fighting monsters right now". His running animation could benefit from a longer startup.(or any startup at all) Snapping into a full gait is too cartoony.(I wish I had a better word to describe the look) You needs some frames where the character transitions. You might notice that in Castlevania, all the characters have a pivot animation, that extends for a good while, like a half second or so. Some characters have a unique animation for just beginning their walk animation, in order to give the sensation of building momentum.(It's a visual trick, since they're their acceleration faster than the animation suggests) Soma will adjust his coat at the beginning of his walk cycle for example. His feet don't match exactly with the speed that he's moving. But that's ok, because the animation gives the look that his action has weight. And that weighted action takes precedent over the accuracy of physical distance matching to his feet.
>>339788714

>>339765898
so glad konami isn't that aggressive on fangames unlike Square-Enix and Nintendo
tho less we forget the officiated Metal Gear Soild fan remakes, but i never knew why Konami suddenly C'nD them afterwards?
>>339788742
I also recommend Crescent Moon Castle. A minecraft metroidvania adventure map with tons of castlevania-like areas, bosses and plenty of secrets and traps. It's long as hell.
>>339788458
Here's another example:
https://youtu.be/z0OB58zNwDM?t=29
The character's special move here, even though it isn't quite like your animations, has big jagged looking slashes that have a sense of quick, vicious movement from beginning to end. I think it might be even more important in your slashes since you have a white color in them as well. I dunno. I've always wanted to get off my ass and make a game with slashes like yours and the ones shown for whatever reason, so I think about it a lot. Not trying to sound like a douche if I am. Haha.

What do my fellow Metroidvaniafags think of this?
It's one of those games I've been meaning to play for a while, but just haven't gotten around to. Guess I'll wait for this remake.
Then there's also this.

They did but it was a shitty fighting game that actually played better with a gamecube controller. Pandora's Tower is a better Castlevania game though.
>>339789093
If you're gonna be faggots about it try Castlevania: Dracula's Shadow. Pretty much Simon's quest but with lots of neat remixes.
>>339788508
Not yet, I'm afraid.Also not sure if there will be, because of age rating.
>>339788814
>His running animation could benefit from a longer startup.(or any startup at all)
Will be added, as I said.
Will also add stopping/breaking/turning animations.
Not sure if I'm going to redraw absolutely everything to fix the posture, though. I'll note it down.
>>339788978
You don't sound like a douche at all. It's nice feedback.
Not sure if I'm going to be able to make it much better, but I'll think about it and perhaps try.

There's Red Cloud, which is a Terraria adventure map. They added in dual-wielding and copied the souls mechanic from Dark Souls. All crafting recipes require souls. The map design is very good.
The only problem is getting it to run. It was made for an older version of Terraria, so it may take a bit of fiddling to get it to work.

Off the top of my head:
Timespinner
Hollow Knight
Death's Gambit
A Hole New World
Lynn and the Spirits of Inao
Arco
Ghost Song (never ever vaporware)
Iconoclasts (never ever vaporware 2)
Owl Boy (kek of the century)
>>339774231
I actually never beat that Drac
And I only had like 4 cards and couldnt get the rest no matter how hard I tried.

>>339789175
>>339787157

Don't.
Play Odallus: The Dark Call or There was a Caveman instead
>>339789527
But those are a SACRED GIFT!
>>339789459
New fucking Momodora when. That game was so far beyond how good I thought it would be.

Jesus those were like the cringy teen years everyone wants to forget

>Will also add stopping/breaking/turning animations.
Aw shit nigga good job. Those small details here and there is what makes these games good for me.
>>339788701
Rondo Maria is really fun to play so I say her.
Yandere Simulator does a homage to Castlevania SOTN. Tho its just the Dracula Battle while your in Simon's garb.
>>339789537
Nah that dude wasn't actually me. I played it, and... yeah, pretty bland. I dunno. It was okay. I did really like Odallus though, so maybe I'll see what's up with There was a Caveman. Haven't heard of it.
>>339789395
Can you post the knights run cycle, so I can better analyze it?
>>339766264
not really
>>339789826
Yeah, Momodora games are damn short but super-polished.
But i think dev is working on a different project for now. I think the way funding for M4 went wasn't really something of a success so it is in limbo

Well, I'm actually going full retard setting up a company (we're only two guys, though) and will be working full-time on this for 5-6 months to create a very polished demo. If we, on the basis of that, can get some funding, we'll try to get the full game done in about a year.
Here's the company logos I drew up just recently.
>>339763818
I've always thought that the Souls games were the 3d version of Castlevania but enemies respawn when you die instead of re-entering zones.
You have the skills, attributes, and abilities of any protag. You have go through a castle and defeat Dracula.
What's the first monster you'll fuck?
>>339790637
Sometimes, I wished that there was a way to make the monster of the castle recognize Soma as Dracula reborn outside of plot cutscenes.

oh, I see the problem. He's planting his leg down, straightening it, then stepping up on his straightened leg. That alone is a mistake. But then it's made worse by the fact that his hip isn't being elevated as much as the length of his leg would indicated. Plus he's doing this weird rocking motion...
Jeez, if there was another thread, I would do some quick cutting and moving to help indicate better motion.

Thanks anyway, friend.
>>339790786
Dracula is kind of an absentee landlord. I imagine most of the monsters would try and make Soma deal with their centuries-long grievances on that front.
>>339790953
